Key Features
Protect a Mid-Length Port Extension
Pure Copper Core
The internal pure copper core helps provide faster data transmission and more stable diagnostic communication between the vehicle and compatible OBD2 tools.
Reinforced Nylon Sleeve
The outside of the cable is covered with a protective nylon braided sleeve for better flexibility, durability, and daily workshop wear resistance.
Flexible Protective Outer Layer
The cable uses flexible protective outer material designed to be environmentally friendly, non-toxic, insulating, and practical for repeated automotive diagnostic use.
Short Extension Design
The 36cm length gives enough extension for easier scanner connection without creating a long cable that takes up extra space inside the vehicle.
Repeated Plug-In Durability
AUTOOL applies an automatic production process and 8 inspection steps from injection to molding. The cable is designed to support over 10,000 plug-in cycles under proper use.
Workshop Protection
The protective sleeve is promoted for flexibility, anti-scalding, waterproof, and anti-aging material performance. Keep the OBD connector contacts dry and clean before plugging into the vehicle or diagnostic tool.
Nylon Sleeve for Daily Handling
A protective nylon braided sleeve improves wear resistance and flexibility around the 10.00mm cable body.
Standard OBD2 Extension
The 16-pin male-to-female cable extends a standard OBD2 vehicle diagnostic port for easier access with compatible diagnostic tools; confirm that both interfaces use the standard 16-pin connection.
36cm of Added Reach
The 360mm extension provides room for scanner connection without a long cable occupying the vehicle interior. Net weight is 120g.
Extension Purpose
Extends the vehicle OBD2 port to make tool connection easier and reduce repeated plug-in wear on the original port.
Passive OBD2 Extension Cable
Routes the existing 16-pin male-to-female connection to the stated length so the scanner or accessory can be positioned more conveniently; available functions still depend on the vehicle, pinout, connected hardware, software, and protocol support.
Connection and Fit Notes
Do not sharply bend the cable near the connector or pull the cable by force during use.
Plug and unplug by holding the connector housing instead of pulling the braided cable section.
Cable Diameter
Cable diameter: 10mm.
3 Years Warranty Support
Main unit: 3-year warranty. Standard accessories: 1-year warranty. Warranty Policy.
How to Use
Connect, Route and Check Communication
Confirm The Vehicle Port
Identify the exact vehicle connector, year, and pinout; inspect it for damage.
Confirm The Tool Chain
Verify the scanner, software, protocol, module, task, and any authorization independently of the cable.
Connect Safely
Follow the vehicle and tool procedure, align connectors correctly, and never force a mismatched plug.
Route Without Strain
Position the cable away from pedals, sharp edges, heat, moving parts, and pinched trim.
Verify Communication
Run the intended read-only connection check first. If communication changes, remove added devices or the extension and compare direct connection.
Safety & Compatibility
Check Pin Fit, Routing and Power Limits
Cable Function
Use the cable for physical connection and routing; protocol and diagnostic functions come from the vehicle and connected tool.
Match the Pinout and Tool
Match the connector and pin routing to the vehicle and diagnostic tool.
Vehicle Movement
Keep all cable and device parts clear of pedals, steering, seat tracks, doors, and driving controls.
Electrical Load
Do not attach unknown or high-current devices to vehicle diagnostic power. Follow the vehicle and tool current limits.
Disconnect If Unstable
If a tool drops connection, overheats, resets, or changes vehicle behavior, stop and return to a known direct connection.
